Dodge reviews
Despite a sick economy, days ago rumors of a merger with GM, and the tenuous scenario of being owned by Cerberus Capital Management, the Mopar folks at Dodge Caliber intend to put on one heck of a show at this year’s Specialty Equipment Market Association humongo gathering (aka SEMA). We reported to you yesterday about the ‘09 Dodge Challenger SRT10 Concept that will be at this year’s show, and apparently that was only one of the tricks up Dodge’s sleeve. A posse of six additional concepts (two challengers, four Ram Trucks), all clearly having spent serious time in the gym, will strut into SEMA this year, prepared to make a powerful statement about Dodge’s commitment to power, performance, and badass style.
More than just some mean-looking add-ons from the Mopar Underground design team, the Dodge Challenger Blacktop adds mechanical and visual accoutrements to its R/T-level 5.7-liter HEMI teamed with the new-for-’09 six-speed manual. A Mopar coil-over suspension, strut tower brace, and 22-inchers give the Blacktop an athletic stance with the moves to match, and a cat-back dual exhaust and low-restriction cold air intake let that wondeful Mopar roar raise the hair on the back of the necks of passersby. Visually, custom spoilers and a front brow are complemented by a black-on-black racing stripe paint scheme and the aforementioned hunkered stance courtesy of the coil-over suspension.
